Abstract
본 연구는 암환자 가족원에게 표현적 글쓰기를 적용하여 그들이 경험하는 돌봄부담감의 수준 낮아지고 심리적 안녕감의 수준은 높아지는지를 살펴보기 위해 수행되었다. 암환자 가족 34명을 표현적 글쓰기 치료 집단(n=18)과 통제 집단(n=16)의 두 집단에 할당하였고, 처치집단에게만 총 4회기 동안 최소 15분 이상 돌봄 경험과 관련한 주제에 대해 글을 쓰게 하였다. 반복측정 변량분석을 실시한 결과, 통제 집단에 비해 처치집단의 돌봄 부담감은 유의하게 감소하였고 심리적 안녕감은 유의하게 증가하였다. 이러한 점을 미루어볼 때, 돌봄 경험에서 비롯되는 정서나 사고에 대한 글쓰기를 통하여 돌봄 부담감이 부분적으로 해소되고, 이와 더불어 심리적인 안녕감을 얻게 될 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 본 연구의 한계와 의의를 논의하였다.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of expressive writing therapy on care-burden and psychological wellbeing on individuals who had been caring for family member battling cancer. Thirty-four family caregivers were assigned to two groups; an expressive writing therapy(EWT) group and a control group with no interventions. EWT group wrote about topics related to their care-giving experiences, including thoughts and feelings four times for at least 15 minutes. Repeated measure ANOVA was conducted to analyze the treatment effect. The results showed that the EWT group had significant reduction in care-burden and improvement in psychological wellbeing after the treatment compared to the control group. This study suggests that writing about the care-giving experience, emotion and thought allowed caregivers to partly cope with the care-burden and to gain psychological wellbeing. Lastly, the limitation and the significance of this study was discussed.
